As you can see, Hannah does not not always appear to love having her picture taken. If she were a teenager, I’d imagine her saying, “Seriously, Mom. Knock it off with the photos! You are such a dork.” I snapped this one yesterday night after I put down Angelmaker to grab some dinner and she proceeded to take over my chair because, I suspect, it was nice and warm.

But, Hannah doesn’t always appear that persnickety. This is one of my favorite photos of her because she just looks so goofy! However, if you were to go over there and start rubbing her tummy, she’d coil up like a spring and start biting your hand — beware of the cute kitten.

Although Hannah doesn’t often join me while I read — she frequently has better things to do than sit on my lap all day — she does love my bookshelves.

My favorite thing about this photo is the way she’s just chilling up there, not a care in the world, since she knows I can’t get to her to try and pick her up or pet her. This photo was taken in our old house, where she had a pretty clear path from the floor up to that bookshelf. Things are arranged a little differently in the new house, and I don’t think she can get up as high anymore. Poor cat.

So there you have it, a gratuitous post of cat pictures for your Sunday. I’m hoping that I can get some blogging done today and finish Angelmaker — I’ve only got about 150 pages left, which I think I can squeeze in this morning before football kicks off at noon. Happy Sunday!

I so miss my cat, Kali, who died last year. She was a wonderful reading companion, always curled up with me, rubbing her face on my books. she even bit a few if I ignored her too long lol. My new cat is either running at full speed or sound asleep. Maybe when she gets older we can read together Your cat is so cute.

Awww, she’s lovely! Also, my sister’s name is Hannah, which clearly makes her doubly awesome. I have two cats, Millie and Domino, but it’s Domino who’s really my reading ‘companion’. I use the term loosely, because much of the time this involves paddling on my knee while I’m trying to read, diving between the pages of an open book, and running off with my bookmark because the tassle was looking at her funny. When she finally settles down, however, she’s really quite a sweet reading buddy.

Gorgeous cat! My dog would sit with me when I’m reading, but as attention is more important than reading to a dog I can’t say I read much. I haven’t heard of Angelmaker, but the title has me interested.

Cute post! When Casey is laying like that it is usually the worst time to pet her, too. She’s smart… ‘I will look cute, they will be lulled into a false sense of security, and then the claws will come out… Silly humans!’ lol

Hannah is gorgeous gorgeous!! The posts this month made me miss my cat Maggie who was pretty good about snuggling with me when I wanted her to, especially come readathon times. Though she’d try to chop my hand if I’d rub her belly like Hannah does to you. Glad you joined us this month!
